Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” has finally been revealed, with the official trailer airing for the first time anywhere on Jimmy Kimmel Live. And while we’re still trying to catch our breath from all the space-bound excitement, the pressing question is: what’s next?
The answer, as always, is toys. We previously showed off a few quick pictures of Hasbro’s upcoming “Guardians of the Galaxy” line, and now we can show you the whole thing in glorious full resolution. The toys all launch in July, and contrary to previous movie-based line-ups (read: “Avengers”) Hasbro has brought out all five members of the Guardians at the same time.
As a brief recap, “Guardians of the Galaxy” is Marvel’s space-based super-team. Hasbro describes them as:
Check out the full line of ‘Guardians’ toys!
“The film follows a diverse team of five aliens, lead by PETER QUILL of Earth (a.k.a. STAR LORD) and featuring GAMORA, DRAX THE DESTROYER, GROOT and the wisecracking, genetically modified ROCKET RACCOON. Together, these self-described Guardians of the Galaxy will team up to defeat cosmic evil that threatens the entire universe.”
Those cosmic evils include Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace), who wants an artifact held by Peter Quill (Chris Pratt); Korath the Pursuer (Djimon Hounsou), who works for Ronan; Sakaaran Troopers, basically shock-troops for Ronan; and the Nova Corps, who are the universes’ cops but also have it out for our heroes.
All of the above are represented in the action figure collections, plus comic book versions of Iron Man and Nova that do not appear in the movie. The line also includes masks, talking figures (with lines provided by Pratt himself), spaceships and role-play guns.
